While Obama had the full weight of the U.S. intelligence community behind him, his drone strikes still raised alarm. Throughout Obama’s tenure, his aggressive use of drone strikes routinely met with complete and utter silence from the Left. As for Joe Biden, he or his puppet masters authorized targeted military strikes, defensive deployments, and counter-terrorism operations against Iranian-backed militia groups in Iraq, Syria, and Houthi targets in Yemen to protect U.S. personnel. Bush's use of military power can be debated, whereas Obama’s strikes on both foreign terrorists and U.S. citizens, without judicial oversight, raised serious questions. Looking at the actions of Barack Obama and even Bill Clinton, who used military force in Kosovo, Iraq, and elsewhere, it is clear that unilateral presidential use of military power is neither new nor partisan.
